War Military: From 1978

Chapter 15: Deputy Chu Ban!
On a March afternoon in the southwestern borderland, with a gentle breeze and the bright sun overhead, lying on the grass at this time would be an absolute pleasure.

And now, there is such a person enjoying himself in front of Chu An.

"Do you want to lie down? It's very comfortable to sunbathe!" Squad Leader Wang turned his head to look at Chu An who was standing aside.

"Isn't this squad leader suitable?" Chu An scratched his head and smiled awkwardly.

This grassland is right next to their dormitory area, and from time to time some veteran squad leaders and recruiting officers would pass by.

Squad Leader Wang is a veteran, and Chu An can’t do anything about him lying there. But if he lies down himself, it would be bad if he was seen by other veterans and recruiting officers!
"Haha, okay!"

Squad leader Wang smiled, sat up, and reached into his pocket to take out a pack of cigarettes that Chu An had only seen and knew the name of in the past two days.

"Economy" card!

Eight cents a pack.

The reason why he knew the price was because Chu An bought it for him yesterday afternoon.

He gave himself ten cents and asked him to go to the store to help buy a pack of cigarettes and a box of matches, exactly ten cents.

"Want one?"

With a cigarette in his mouth, he looked at Chu An and spoke again!
"Well, squad leader, I don't smoke!"

Chu An said something against his will.

In fact, he really wanted to smoke.

Although Chu An doesn't smoke in this life and is an excellent student, he did smoke before his rebirth.

The addiction to smoking actually has a greater impact on the mind. It is more of a habit addiction than a nicotine addiction.

Because of this, Chu An naturally quit smoking immediately after his rebirth without any explanation.

But now he doesn't dare tell him that he smokes.

Even on the train, he knew that smoking was prohibited during the recruitment period.

"Bullshit, if you don't smoke, why did you buy cigarettes?" Squad Leader Wang looked at Chu An unhappily.

"what?"

"What?" Squad Leader Wang scolded with a smile, "Do you think I don't know that you bought me two packs of cigarettes at the canteen?"

"."

Chu An was speechless.

The routine is so deep.

He felt like he was being tricked.

"You're not allowed to smoke now. Smoking during the recruit period affects your physical fitness. If you really want to smoke, show me your ability after the class division. If you satisfy me, I can let you smoke occasionally!"

Chu An was speechless again.

He didn't want to say anything anymore.

Is this a trick?
Squad Leader Wang's smile remained undimmed. He lit a cigarette and spoke again, "Remember, when the time comes to select soldiers, if another squad leader chooses you, don't go!"

"Uh..." Chu An was stunned again and couldn't help but ask: "Squad leader, do I have the right to refuse?"

"No, but you can make up something. For example, if they ask you what you used to do at home, just say you didn't do anything. Then if they ask you whether you come from the countryside or the city, just say you come from the city!"

Chu An was speechless again.

"Squad leader, this... isn't this a blatant lie?"

"Haha, what are you afraid of? Unless you don't want to follow me?" Squad Leader Wang stared at Chu An.

Chu An said hurriedly: "No, I am willing to follow the squad leader!"

To be honest, since Chu An came to the army, he only knows a few veterans and recruiting officers.

The recruiting officer will not lead the squad himself. For example, Platoon Leader Ma is only here to help temporarily, and he will return to his old company when the new recruits are divided into squads.

As for the others, squad leader Liu who had visited his home was not bad, but now he is in charge of the dormitory next door and doesn't care about himself!
Apart from these, the only veterans Chu An knew were the two he met when he helped in the kitchen these past two days.

But those two veterans were not leading any troops, so there was nothing wrong with following Squad Leader Wang, who was already a little more familiar with them.

"Humph, you're smart, kid!
"Okay, that's it. From now on, when you're in my class, other monitors can cheat on you, but can they bite you? If they really want to bite you, they have to get past me, right?"

At this point, he smiled again and said, "What's more, I brought you here at the company commander's request!"

"Company commander?"

Chu An looked stunned again.

Squad leader Wang smiled and said, "Well, it's not a secret. Captain Tong will become a company commander in our future recruit camp!" Chu An was silent.

Squad Leader Wang looked at Chu An's expression, smiled, and lay down again: "Okay, go back and help me watch them fold the quilts!"

"Yes!"

Chu An saluted and then turned around.

He was just helping to fold the quilts in the dormitory, and he suddenly called him out, which led to this scene.

Time passes again.

Another day passed, and Chu An and his team had already spent three nights in the army.

During these three nights, Chu An and others still lived in a dormitory with only straw as the floor.

These new recruits don’t know how many days they will stay in this dormitory.

Mainly when someone asked, Platoon Leader Ma and Squad Leader Wang also said that they would follow orders in everything and the specific situation would depend on the instructions from their superiors.

After hearing this, even if I wanted to go to bed, I had to hold it in.

"Deputy Chu, can you help me check if the quilt is folded properly?"

In the dormitory, Chu An was now sitting on a small stool. After Li Guoping folded the quilt beside him, he turned around and greeted him with a smile.

Chu An rolled his eyes: "Stop yelling, what's the point of being a class vice-president or not!"

After three days, Squad Leader Wang also talked to Chu An and others about some things about the army.

For example, the deputy monitor that Li Guoping mentioned just now.

According to Squad Leader Wang, after these new recruits are officially divided into companies and squads, a deputy squad leader will be selected from among the new recruits soon.

As for the deputy monitor, since everyone has only learned how to fold quilts, many monitors will only use folding quilts as an assessment requirement.

At that time, Squad Leader Wang also said that Chu An would definitely become deputy squad leader after the company was divided into classes. Because of this, the new recruits in their dormitory no longer call him "intellectual" but "Squad Leader Chu" instead!

"It's okay, it looks like it can barely pass!"

After commenting on Li Guoping's quilt and preparing to say that the quilt should be pressed tighter, something happened suddenly.

"Beep beep~"

"Everyone, pack your backpacks and luggage and come out to assemble!"

Tong Lianzhong's voice suddenly came from outside.

"Ok?"

In an instant, everyone in the dormitory was stunned, and then started to act hurriedly.

"Are we going to divide the classes?"

"affim!"

Inside the dormitory, everyone was chatting quickly while packing.

But that’s all I have to say.

Because after the door opened, Squad Leader Wang was standing at the door.

"Everyone move quickly!"

After some urging, Chu An and others hurriedly sped up their actions.

In just three or four minutes, everyone packed their backpacks, picked up their luggage and filed out of the door.

Soon, Chu An and others as well as the new recruits from the next dormitory all gathered in front of Tong Lianzhong.

Similarly, new recruits who were brought in from other places and lived nearby were also gathering.

"Stand at attention. At ease!"

Platoon Leader Ma organized the team, and then the team was ordered to walk towards the square where everyone had just parked and got off the car that day.

Here, when Chu An and the others came over, they saw that there were three cadres they had never seen before waiting here.

No one knows who it is and no one can guess.

These days, all the cadres’ uniforms are the same, with no rank or other distinctive features.

After forming the team again, in front of these three cadres, Chu An and other recruits still lined up separately with the recruiting cadres as their leader.
